MotoGrandPrix- Jerez 2020 MegaThread (7/19 & 7/26)

Dude, that made me cringe. Ugh. Yeah, having him do a physical test with pushups and such (hammered on pain killers), then putting him on the bike was really, really dumb for his long term health.

Just let it fuggin' heal.

^^^^^ THIS ^^^^^

Man, I wonder if he will ride again this weekend. With three races this month...needs to get fit ASAP. Probably an even harder decision for him this time vs last time.

I’m so pumped for three race weekends in a row.

 

[afm199]

I doubt he will ride for the simple reason that this is less recovery time than the original plate, and he undoubtedly did some bone damage by the last ride.

 

[Smash Allen]

he has the ride for four years. hopefully he is smart and sits out the rest of this silly season.

MM needs to chill.. heal. Chase a C'ship in 2021.

 

[Shaggy]

Ooops...

:facepalm

Exactly what my fear was. What a bonehead move to put so much stress on a bone so soon after having it set.

 

[blrmaker]

Thats a huge set back. Stressing a titanium plate can not be easy. Heal up dude and come back strong!:afm199

 

[budman]

bonehead... Good use of terminology. :laughing

+1 he won't do it, but he should start considering taking 20rona20 off. A lot of things can go wrong that will hurt his longevity. If Quarto gets another 25 this weekend, and 3 race weekends in a row...just doesn't look smart.

 

[SuperMike]

bonehead... Good use of terminology. :laughing

Or platehead.

WinOrBin did himself in with the RedMist. If he tries to ride again in Brno after this second surgery he could really end his career.

Bradl to replace Marc Marquez at Brno.

MotoGP.com: After undergoing a second surgery on a fractured humerus, Marc Marquez will be replaced by HRC test rider Stefan Bradl for the upcoming Czech GP.

 

[SFLowrHgt]

That irrational drive is what got MM to where he is, but it's now his own worst enemy. His championship hopes are probably gone now, but when he comes back he will push to smash the field a few times and show everyone where they really stand. We'll see if he has learned anything or pushes too hard and ends up right back where he is.

 

[kelsodeez]

Will Cal will finally get that factory support since he's really the elder statesman in the Honda camp or will Nakagami get the attention of the repsol engineers twiddling their thumbs waiting for Marc's bones to fuse back together?

 

[DefyInertia]

Never a dull day

Can’t wait for FP1!!!!

 

[afm199]

Yeah, pretty much this.

Maybe my prediction on MM is finally coming true. :laughing

 

[Kestrel]

It was always going to happen this way.

Just a matter of time.

Someone going to start the Official Brno thread?
